Highlighted in RED. Am I too sensitive to say that the order of the enrolment type shows a distinct bias?
First, RI wants the best local brains. (Naturally so.)
Secondly, she wants international students. (Naturally so, the wealth I mean.)
Thirdly, she prefers returning Singaporeans. (Naturally so. Rich and partly for political reason.)
Fourthly (& Lastly), she accepts the very those locals whom she claims will not be left out (herein aka victimised). Why are children who have been slogging in her birth country be placed as the fourth in line. (It's not in alphabetical order, mind you.) They are probably from not too well-to-do families! Which is the whole main point, is it not?
It is similar to my workplace. During the financial crisis, several key staff left for varied reasons. After 3-4 years later, they returned to the company in almost similar positions as before BUT quickly promoted. The very staff who slogged out for the company during the crisis were ignored. Likewise, native Singapore kids are not valued.
I like the new whistle-blowing policy of RI. May I blow the whistle now and request the RI Board of Governors to be transparent with the list of "donations" by parents whose children were/are in RI since it became an independent entity. Particularly the list of ex-RI parents and those who made it to the Notable Achievement list.
I believe Lim Soon Hock should be fully aware of how RI and other envious government schools used to envy ACS and Saint Joseph's for their rich parents' contributions (aka "goodwill gesture").
The saddening part is one of the richest heritage of our country has turned into a mechanism similar to commercialism, goodwill connections, political vehicle (more outwardly in context and content).
When RI & RJC merged, it turned into gold. Gold not of excellance but of monetary greed and pure despise. It is no wonder RI had despicable news coming out like the cost to attend a PTA event.
